Blocked by Terazosin

24
Q

What receptor does Metaprotenrenol, Terbutaline, Albuterol and Salmeterol act on?

A

B2 selective agonist

25
Q

What is albuterol used for?

A

Bronchodilation

Asthma- B2 agonists

26

What are side effects of B1 stimulatoin

A

Tachycardia, palpitations

28
Q

What are side effects of B2 stimulation?

A

tremor and headache

29
Q

What is the major cardiovascular effect to iv injection of a B2 selective agonist?

A

Vasodilation

30
Q

What does albuterol do to blood pressure? What would block that action?

A

Decreases blood pressure

Propranolol

31
Q

Whatare Clonidine, methyldopa, guanabenz and tizanidine?

A

A2 agonists

32
Q

What is an antihypertensive that’s safe to use in pregnancy?

A

Methyldopa

33
Q

What drugs decrease sympathetic activity without interfering with reflexes?

A

34
Q

What is clonidine used for?

35
Q

What are side effects of A2 receptor agonists?

A

Depression
Sexual dysfunction
Dry mouth
bradycardia

36
Q

What do alpha 2 agonists do to blood pressure?

A

Increase blood pressure

37
Q

What happens when Epi stimulates A1 vs B2?

A

A1- vasoconstricts

B2- vasodilate

38
Q

What does Epi do in the cardiovascular system?

A

INCREASES HR and force but reflexes to elevation in BP can suppress HR (vagal stimulation)

39
Q

What does Epi do to blood pressure?

A

Increases blood pressure

40
Q

What happens when EPI is blocked by terazosin?

A

Brings blood pressure back to normal

41
Q

What happens if you give Epi and terazosin?

A

Decrease BP

42
Q

What happens when you give epi after giving terazosin and propranolol?

A

BP stays the same

43
Q

What does NE do?

A

A1- vasoconstriction
B1- increase heart rate and force

(reflex reduction in HR–mediated by vagus nerve)

44
Q

What does NE do to bp?

A

Increases BP

45
Q

What happens if you administer NE after giving terozosin?

A

Smaller increase in BP

46
Q

What happens if you give NE after giving terazosin and propranolol?

A

Bp stays the same

47
Q

What does isoproternol do?

A

B2- vasodilation

B1- tachycardia

48
Q

What is isoproterenol used for?

A

B1 cardiac stimulation

49
Q

Stimulation of what receptor increases CO?

50
Q

Stimulation of what receptor increases TPR?

51
Q

Stimulation of what receptor decreases HR?

A

Muscarinic

52
Q

Stimulation of what receptor decreases TPR?

A

Muscarinic and B2

53
Q

What does affect does dopamine have on B1, dopaminergic, A1 and the neural system?

A

B1- positive ionotrope
Dopaminergic- vasodilator of renal and mesenteric vasculature
A1- vasoconstrictor at high doses
Neural- releases NE from nerves

54
Q

What is DA used for?

A

Maintains renal perfusion
Hypotension
Increased BP and CO

55
Q

What do indirectly acting agents (like NE and Amphetamine) do?

A

Release NE from nerves by reversing the catecholamine axoplamic uptake pump>
increases BP
